June 2014

Summer is here! The Farmers’ Markets have started, swimming pools are open, and the kids are out of school. Summer officially starts June 21, and the 4th of July is just two weeks after that. I’m not sure why, but once the 4th of July is here, it feels like summer is half over. Why then in January, winter doesn’t feel like it’s half over two weeks after the official start?.

Maybe it’s just me, but time just goes so fast. My seven-year-old grandson said, ”You know time goes faster when you are older.”

I said, “I know. Just think how fast it goes for me.”

He said, “Yeah!!!”

He must think I’m really old. If my body felt as young as my mind, I’d be in great shape.

The speaker at our dinner meeting in June may be able to help us with both body and mind. Abby Miller is an acupuncturist. Acupuncture is something I have known about for a long time, but I really don’t know what all it can do for you. So if you are like me, you need to come to the Urbandale Golf and Country Club, June 19th and learn what acupuncture is all about. Hope to see you all there!
